About this study

Official title: Comparison of Creatinine Clearance Calculation Methods for Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients Receiving High-Dose Methotrexate

The purpose of this study is to compare different estimates of calculating creatinine clearance by mathematical formula and compare them to creatinine clearance based on a timed urine collection in patients who received high-dose methotrexate for the treatment of primary CNS lymphoma or CNS involvement of systemic lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

We intend to perform a retrospective chart review to identify a serum creatinine-based equation that gives the best estimate of CrCl as compared with an equation derived from a 24-hour urine collection.

Study subjects will be identified using the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Adult Pharmacy systems to identify patients who received high-dose methotrexate. Data will be collected starting with December 31, 2010 and proceeding chronologically backwards until the target enrollment of 40 patients is reached.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To identify a serum creatinine-based equation that gives the best estimate of CrCl as compared to a measured creatinine clearance formula.

    Serum creatinine-based equations to be included in that analysis are: Cockcroft-Gault with the following weight descriptors; ideal body weight, actual body weight, and adjusted body weight; Modified MDRD; CKD-EPI.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To further compare each formula in a different subset of patients.

    To further compare each formula in a different subset of patients: Age < 65 years and >/= 65 years; body mass index < 25, 25-30, 30-35, and > 35; serum creatinine <1.5 mg/dL and >/= 1.5 mg/dL.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of CNS Lymphoma and CNS Involvement of Systemic Lymphoma, run by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To identify a serum creatinine-based equation that gives the best estimate of CrCl as compared to a measured creatinine clearance formula. (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jan 2019.
